I would like to see a good blend of lightweight but solid power in the M2. They can totally redeem the value of M to BMW folks if they get this right.
It actually means quite a bit. The original M3 was designed to be used as a homologated race car, meaning the engine choice was dictated more by the race class than buyers needs/desires. The M2 is not being designed for such a purpose. I6 is is/will be.
